Proteins Functions—A Global Core Biodata Resource, Panther Classification System (https://pantherdb.org/, accessed on 11 June 2023), classified the gene dataset for functions. Proteins secreted by pancreatic cancer cells were classified as having a general function (left column) or a specific function (right column). An Alluvial plot (https://www.mapequation.org/alluvial/, accessed on 28 June 2023) was used to depict the classifications. Furthermore, percentages of secreted proteins having common general functions are reported in the left column. A color code was used for each general function. In the column, the most represented protein functions are in the plot’s lower part.
